Buyer Beware! This is a great work-out video for the legs and gluts, but what you should know before buying it is that this video was originally called Buns of Steel 3, which is not clarified here on the website. Imagine my disappointment of opening the package only to see in tiny print on the video itself that it was "formerly Buns of Steel 3", a video which I already own. Personal issues aside, it is an excellent work-out mostly of the lower half of the body, with some abs thrown in. It leave me feeling satisfied that I had a good work-out.

I used this workout religiously whilst in college, and it not only gave me shape and definition, but it also increased my energy levels, and made me think about what i ate. I am now a mother, and have gone back to using this tape, since I am a beginner now, I find it a little difficult, but the pain is certainly worth the gain. Every week I see a little improvement!

You won't be sitting or laying down during this workout! All the exercises are standing up. It's challenging, but that's the best part because it works! At first, I could only do the first section of this tape cause I was out of shape, but I quickly advanced. Some moves may be difficult for beginners (hence the intermidiate title)such as power move lunging where you switch legs by jumping into the next lunge. Also, you can feel the burn while holding the plie position. Careful with your knees! The martial arts section definitely improved my balance. The instructors are good coaching proper form and the music includes songs like "I'm Every Woman" and "Blame It on the Sunshine." This video will make you sore in a good way.

This workout mainly includes several series of lunges and squats for the glutes and thighs. It also has some abdominal work thrown in at the end which is good as well. So why 4 stars?
I can't complain about the workout, but the video itself is not too great. The quality is bad, very fuzzy.
The scenery and music are a tad on the dull side. (I tend to like interesting things to look at and listen to. It takes your mind off the workout.)
While many people may like Tamilee Webb, she's not my all time favorite. I like instructors with a little enthusiasm that will encourage you to do more and more.
Overall, I feel this video needs a little more spice. I would recommend the Greg Smithey version of Buns of Steel instead. I have a lot more fun with that one.
